A child will turn 12 next month and is 134 cm tall. What does the law normally require?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. A child car seat
- Step 1: The seat rule ends at the 12th birthday or at 135 cm, whichever comes first. Step 2. Neither condition has been met yet: the child is still under 12 and under 135 cm, so a seat is still needed. Answer: A child car seat. Why not the others: Being close to a limit does not count, there is no journey-length rule, and the law has no month of leeway.
